Co-laureate for the 2007 Nobel Prize for physics. The 69-year-old Frenchman and Peter Gruenberg of Germany shared the prize for discovering a phenomenon called giant magnetoresistance. WASH Loving that stern pose, and Fert is coolly confident with his hands in his pockets. Were even willing to forgive the baby-blanket blue of that sweater because its tastefully paired with a white shirt, and it does  we admit  look comfy. But then why ruin it with some lying-around-the house jeans? Juice that up with some black slacks, Al! Way too casual for someone who discovered giant magnetoresistance.
